Washington wins both road games and goes home for three games up 2-0 in the series. Can the heavily favored Astros find themselves in Washington, and win 2 of the three games to force the series back to Houston. Man Washington is so freaking hot !

Ex Tigers Max and Fernando in the cusp of rings !

I bet Fangraphs still has Houston at 75% to win the WS.

I didn't know it was that bad. 4th worst all time (minimum 5 starts)

Verlander in six World Series starts: 0-5, 5.73 ERA.

That was cringe-worthy. I've read more interesting takes on this board. Tim's not "rooting for the Nationals" but somehow makes a connection between the high school he attended, the pitcher it was named for, and the ex-Montreal-Expos, who now occupy the city. And Eddie Brinkman. Can't forget Eddie. It was actually the most interesting aspect of the whole mess.

But he cried when the second iteration of the Senators moved to Texas. I was moved.

Tigers advance scouting knew that Brock
never slid into home plate.
